A service of Nine Lessons and Carols

There’s no better way to prepare for your Christmas celebrations than to take in a traditional service of Nine Lessons and Carols. The Christian story of Christmas is interwoven with a feast of music, both the familiar and the not so. You can share the singing of favourite Christmas carols with the choir of St Martin’s Church accompanied by the organ. All this and candlelight too in the beautiful surrounds of Epsom's largest historical building.

FestiVOLE – Water Vole Celebration Event

Join us for FestiVOLE - Our Water Vole Release Celebration Event with Amy-Jane Beer

In August of 2022, years of hard work with the help of hundreds of volunteers came to fruition with the release of 101 voles back onto our local river, the Hogsmill! On Saturday the 25th of February we will be celebrating this landmark achievement and the river more broadly at the CornherHOUSE Theatre.

This celebratory event will feature a talk from Dr Amy-Jane Beer, a biologist, nature writer and campaigner. She is the author of over 30 books on natural history, a Country Diarist for The Guardian, a columnist for British Wildlife and a regular contributor to BBC Wildlife and Countryfile magazines, among others. Her recent book, The Flow, a beautiful and fascinating book that explores the UK’s rivers, includes a trip to the Hogsmill and features our water vole project!

The event will also premier a short film about the Hogsmill Water Vole project, directed and filmed by aspiring wildlife filmmaker Molly McNamara-Langton. There will also be a short talk about water voles by Elliot Newton and Ben Stockwell.

This family-friendly event will include Water Vole-themed crafted-making activities for children and a book signing session with Amy where you can purchase her book at a discounted price that will also contribute to the water vole project.
